Britney's Dad Gets a Raise for Looking After Her
Contrary to most others in the American workplace this year, Britney Spears's father, Jamie Spears, just got a salary increase: to about $75 an hour.
On Monday, a Los Angeles Superior Court Commissioner boosted by an additional $51,000 the elder Spears's payment for acting as his daughter's conservator, the Associated Press reports.
Since February, Jamie, 56, has been looking after Britney, 27, to the tune of $10,000 a month.
Court Commissioner Reva Goetz has now raised his fee to about $16,000 a month – and made the pay retroactive.
Jamie was also granted an additional $1,200 a month for office expenses, which Goetz said was justified by the fact that Britney's personal and professional life – her new CD Circus recently debuted at No. 1 – now appears to be back on track.

It's a full time job looking after her. It's not the same as looking after your kid in the normal way. She's got a life that we can only imagine. It's anything but normal. She would have someone else getting paid to keep her sh!t together.

Re: Britney's Dad Gets a Raise for Looking After Her
I think he is doing a great job! She looks great and she seems like things are being put back together.
I am sure he would do it for free.. if it wasn't consuming all of his time and he was able to work some other job. But he is watching and doing everything for a 27 year old woman.

I agree. While i understand that her life is different than most peoples, he is still her father. Being financially invested in her creates a very strange dynamic. There will come a time where he will have to decide where his interests and her interests will conflict. While his hand is in her pocket, I'd hate to see what decision he makes  Look at her mom's tell all book about her- and wasn't she managing her for a while. Not good parenting.
Also, I don't know how much of her "comeback" I attribute to him. It may just be a part of her growing up.

The "comeback" I attribute solely to her manager not her dad.
As far as her dad getting paid... he has no other source of income so he might as well get a set amount of money each month. I def. he's doing a great job and only has her best interest at heart (at least from what I could tell from the documentary on MTV).
